Summary Introduction
To determine: The biological and clinical features that made the eradication of smallpox possible.
Introduction: Smallpox is a contagious disease that existed for about 300 years and was finally eradicated in 1979. The disease was caused by small variola virus that caused the development of the very small, firm, deep-seated pustules or blisters that lead to the disfiguration and disability in the infected patients.

- ✓ Details Draw a protein that is embedded in a membrane (a transmembrane protein), label the lipid bilayer and the protein. Identify the areas of the lipid bilayer that are hydrophobic and hydrophilic. Draw a membrane with two transporters: a proton pump transporter that uses ATP to generate a proton gradient, and a second transporter that moves glucose by secondary active transport (cartoon-like is ok). It will be important to show protons moving in the correct direction, and that the transporter that is powered by secondary active transport is logically related to the proton pump.arrow_forwarddrawing chemical structure of ATP. please draw in and label whats asked.

Steroids diffuse through membranes without transporters. Compare and contrast the remaining substances and circle the three substances that can diffuse through a membrane the fastest, without a transporter.
